I went ahead and updated the original posting with the fixed one.

Bumpin

Attached is a build I have been toying with, but not sure how to play nice getting the KB to KD slotted whilst keeping defense caps up. Just looking for a more efficient build in terms of capping defenses and slotting abilities that may be more beneficial. Thanks. Power Gumbo - Corruptor (Energy Blast - Force Field).mbd

I want to squeeze out enough def to be melee cap with farsight and better mez protection or at the very least maybe S/L def cap with better mez? Can someone help me alter this build? Not sure whats best to take away from/rework. Also, not sure if I should go rune of prot instead? Hot Gumbo - Corruptor (Fire Blast - Time Manipulation).mbd

Looking for more logic sense improvements here. I do not make many defender builds so LF some help on it. Narvi - Defender (Nature Affinity - Ice Blast).mbd

Any suggestions?

Can someone make this more balanced? I am trying this myself, and don't spec scrappers much. Hoping this isn't too end hog happy. Can always run musc rad, or go hybrid I suppose. I dont necessarily like conserve energy, but physical perfection is always welcome. I want ample recharge, S/L/E/Ne def caps, and not too much end hogging. Basically balanced. |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;1851;691;1382;HEX;| |78DA75944B6F125114C7EF0C83580A055A69790814A4A5E531654A176A34C658DBB| |496841675E3A28E706D895808D444977E054D74A34B172ED4E877F05B1875E7CAB6| |F111EB0A0FDCCB9CB318273C7EF39F73CE3D8FB9B7FC70D9F376F5F125A68C5D699| |ADDEE76B5D631DB6DDE7196CD9D468DF52F177C43437DBBCC9B9CEB6B352E28623D| |58E677F95E573CBADCB9DFEA3077A5D56AEAD536E775CF0037B8D96EECED7807372| |B8D9DDD7DB8F30D1FD579A7BBDB6887AFB61B35BDBA6F36EF41D46AEB4173BB6C76| |F779E751081299816F3EC3E4D573B00AFCA534A507577613B9B045B88AFC6A1E589| |1BE070EC60CA17B7E208F1D123E428EC0BA8AF0D5944DC5D2D51B84B790B52AE1EB| |C85188E39039383EA0EE7E8FEC79876CBC41D6C1D7297C55E74B95B109A19F7841F| |8B56AD9A7607A2E69EFCA314B3FF91F9E04FB1161AF8CFCC4DADD41CC6101721815| |FD67A349F43D0DBA57FA7A89EE271C031B9FACDD4762FAC92C26C92C42641606F80| |6C4BACE00D72C7DBC4EF836F22993F01DE4C91A721C624E0C86DA53279E63DF324F| |90B34F9115E84F50D61E1C08FD1F07A853B2AAA922569559225C22133590172183B| |0F075866771A5488E7056255D263C871CFF885525206654E613FD851D8C1F13FE8D| |3CFD0759835A62D23746269426134A93092D90099560DD849C50E222E6367D96F00| |5E4E439C2E709DF22F6103325F3497DC2B5CE7C25FC99F017E464469C18FDE9CEFC| |457D7691707F7031C1DF409E13F6DA9C8139CCE709170917C85BA2231F7B18CBC93| |839D2C3FC0AAE9B5F27BC865C58450EC02C74B97B75BA03AF91FEFB511F07FBA2DC| |8145B2EB0CBA4B35EBF484CFF00D4E68D6B9D8CBDA5A146D55C3562DD9AA4BB6EA8| |6AD5AD1643AA02A963AE2879353A8BDEF6EEB34261687A82ACA4DEC4C681D3823F8| |C0D6F308555521BB3F4D4E85D967C8FF004C0C7E9C| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| Scrapper (Ice Melee - Ice Armor).mbd

bumping.

Here is one I used. Works pretty well. A little end hungry, but its def cap for melee, decent res, KB protected, and slotted with some expensives. Gumbo DMDA Brute.mbd

Attached is a build I have been working on. I want to make sure it will have enough end and recharge for a smooth rotation whilst capping the defenses and maintaining a relevant amount of res, and outputting decent damage. I want it to be balanced. Any suggestions for swapping sets, etc, I am open to. Brute (Battle Axe - Shield Defense).mbd

Attached is the build with the adjustments made per Frozen Burn, which makes sense. Just gets over the ranged def cap. Gumbo (Ice Blast - Ice Manipulation).mbd

Title says it all. Looking for a build that has decent survivability, ST damage, and Aoe, but I feel like I have too many attacks. Can someone give their take on this build? Thanks. Gumbo (Ice Blast - Ice Manipulation).mbd

Hello again, As the topic states, looking for improvements on the attached build. Looking to maintain melee def cap and keep res solid. Gumbo - Brute (Psionic Melee).mbd

Any chance you can make the build off my mids build? Issue i am having is it doesn't seem to want to let me grab dark oblit and slot it.

Am I getting closer? mids_build SR DM Tanker.mbd

Bump

My main thing is to pick up touch of fear and gloom, but this affects my S/L res due to enhancements. Is Touch of Fear worth it? Was thinking of taking 3 slots from health out and adding to a skill. Just want to have ample AOE without sacrificing too much. Thanks in advance. mids_build SR DM Tanker.mbd

I have a build that currently feels underwhelming in the recharge and endurance category. can someone take a look and optimize this for me? I am new to controllers, as I always have played brute and tankers, but I am open to other power pools.😃 Controller - Symphony Control - Sonic Resonance.mbd

Thanks for the feedback! What you explain makes sense 😃

Here is the latest iteration I have made, tweaking Snarky's build a little. I dropped Touch of fear and Oppressive gloom and grabbed Acrobatics and Combat Jumping instead. I did this for the KB, hold, and immobilize protection, which at times became annoying. This gives me a total of 13 KB protection. I took cardiac Alpha. Res looks good, and defense is slightly improved, even though I know the set doesn't have ddr protection, its how it played out with the toggles. I do miss oppressive gloom a little, but I didn't find myself using Touch of Fear much. The damage version of this is Musc Radial combined with Hybrid for the end discount. Gumbo DMDA Brute.mbd

I am looking at the build that has Soul Mastery in it. Can I get away with Musc Rad on that, or do you think I will need something more like Vigor or Cardiac to calm the end?

Yea I don't need Cross Punch either. Was just trying to get to Def cap, but since being told of the DDR issue, need to focus on res more i think. Maybe I will get Soul Mastery instead.

Can you send me what you would do with alterations? I dont need cloak of fear necessarily. I know its an ask but the meat and potatoes is there for the most part.

Hi all, I wanted you to check out a DM/DA Brute build that I am working on. I took cross punch on this build to also use Obliteration to reach the 45% cap. Want to see what your thoughts are on it. mids_build (DMDA CP).mbd

For example, I take Intuition radial Paragon as a Brute, will this affect abilities like soul drain or shadow maul, or is it only ranged abilities such as fire blast, cages, etc that this gets applied to?
